So... Today was the first day of my 60 day challenge and it started off kind of rough. Of course my husband wanted to go out to eat for breakfast on the first day and the first meal of my challenge. We went to a small diner in town. Since I don't eat most meats, I had a choice between pancakes and French toast, so I chose the French toast. I was served 4 pieces but only ate two. I only used 1 butter packet and one syrup for both pieces (not something I normally would have done since I looooooove butter and syrup). I was very disappointed that I was starving directly afterwards, but I was soon relieved as about an hour later I became full! :)
Later that day the in-laws came out to the cottage and I made guacamole for lunch/snack. I ate less than a full serving of that and I also had a nectarine (a new found fruit that I love). For dinner I made BBQ pulled pork sandwiches and potato salad and I also had a pickle. I ate one sandwich, one pickle, and a cup of potato salad. I was, once again, still hungry after eating but soon became full in the next half hour.
Later on in the day I ate a mint chocolate chip ice cream sandwich for dessert. I also recently ate a banana since the hubby is snacking and it makes me want to eat! I feel very full now at the end of the day and feel content and confident in the fact that I did not over-eat.
I was hoping to be able to provide pictures of everything, but unfortunately I cannot figure out how to upload pictures on Dan's phone. Some more bad news is that I cannot keep you posted on my progress for the next few days because dan will be leaving and taking his phone which is my only Internet source :(. So for the next few days wish me luck since it will be very hard to keep to my challenge with no one to report to!
